I just saw The Grudge. That movie scared the crap out of me.
It wasn't the best horror movie I've seen, but it sure as hell was the scariest. Scary movies usually don't do much to me, but this was a big exception to the rule. I thought the ring was creepy, but this was just frightening. Anyone else freaked out by it? Or will you all laugh at me? :(

1. I saw this and the original version, Ju-On.
I thought they were both good.

A haunted house movie that's actually scary. It's about time.

2. I thought it was pretty freaky
My gf was thoroughly scared, but then again she wanted to sleep with the lights on after we watched the blair witch project (seriously). The Ring wasn't scary till the end when that chick crawled out of the screen, then I was freaked.

6. It was dumb that they kept going to explore every strange sound
so that takes away from the quality, methinks, but the scaryness factor was what got me. Especially with the detective looking at the video tape. Daaaaaamn. :scared:

7. the part that gave me a chill was when he was watching that ghost
in the security camera recording and as it got closer the camera went dark then it was the eyes of the ghost/girl close up looking into the camera! I watched this movie TWICE (the second time was the japanese version called JU-ON) and I STILL got the chill even though I knew it was coming!
